Question

Coldfusion Component page is not being processed. - or at least, it is not working

Hello,

I am using jQuery AJAX to call a function from a .cfc page. As of now, I am just using console.log(result) to see what response I get. And what I got is the content of the coldfusion component page.

And if I type the url on the browser I get the same...

This is my code to make the call using AJAX

index.cfm

jQuery.ajax({
    url: 'sch_acc_maint_func.cfc',
    type: 'POST',
    data: {method: 'student_info', accnumber: accnumber, dsrc: dsrc}, //variables are defined , but I have not posted the code...
    success: function(student){
          console.log(student);
      }
});
The contents for sch_acc_maint_func.cfc, can be seen on the picture.
I am running Coldfusion 9 on a unix server.
Has anybody experienced this situation? Any advise will be really appreciated.

To begin with, delete the cfcontent tag. The CFC should start with the cfcomponent tag and end with </cfcomponent>.  Besides, you could do something like $.post("sch_acc_maint_func.cfc", {method:"student_info", accnumber: accnumber, dsrc: dsrc}, etc.

Hi, thanks for your response. I have taken the cfcontent tag, and still it does not work. I already tried $.post and $.get and $.load, and still nothing.

Simple example of posting to a CFC using JQuery and Ajax.
test.cfm
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>
<script  type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$.ajax({
  type: "POST",
  url: "Test.cfc",
  data: {method:'testFunc', arg1:5, arg2:8},
  success: function(result){
    alert (result);
         // console.log(result);
      }
});
});
</script>
Test.cfc
<cfcomponent accessors="true" output="false" persistent="false">
<cffunction name="testFunc" access="remote" returntype="Numeric">
<cfargument name="arg1">
<cfargument name="arg2">
<cfreturn arguments.arg1+arguments.arg2>
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
